We all write emails these days, whether it's to a friend, a coworker, or your boss. Obviously emails can't really express your body language or the tone in your voice, so it's very easy for people to misinterpret you. This means how we sign-off our emails is very important. If I was writing an email to my supervisor I would not use " later ;-) " The same if I was writing to a close friend or family, I would not use "Sincerely" because this would seem too distant and strange.

It's important to have good email etiquette especially in business or formal emails. Here are four formal and four informal ways you can sign-off your emails. These are just some of the most commons ones that people use these days.

In some cases, when you're writing an email to someone you've never met, you can use "Yours faithfully," however, I don't see it used very much these days. It seems like people just use "Sincerely." Have any of you received emails or written emails using "Yours faithfully"? Which one of the salutations here do you use most?
